A Bit of Cute
Friday, February 8, 2013 
This is Rocco's preferred spot lately. We finally let him go back into the bedroom when we're gone - when we first got him, he destroyed everything and there were shoe, blanket, and pillow casualties. Now, he just snuggles up, especially with the snow and cold weather we've been having.
I'm prepping for several trips - L.A., D.C., Amsterdam, Brussels, Bruge, Tel Aviv - obsessively researching, going through all my files, and talking to friends. I've been taking advantage of NYC the past few weeks too - going to the old-school Keens Steakhouse, Hearth (cozy East Village spot where I had the best glass of Nero d'Avola wine), a delicious new-ish restaurant in the West Village, Rosemary's, and coming up - Gramercy Tavern, I Sodi, and Babbo. But I have also made sure to have plenty of nights at home, watching New Girl and The Taste.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Bruge is one of my most favorite places in the world. It is so charming, quaint and filled with lovely people, delicious beer and to die for chocolate. Be sure to eat at least three versions of frites with sauce so you can really pick what you love. Climb to the top of the bell tower for the stunning view and really, drink lots of lots of beer.
Hi Annie,
I've been a fan for a while now and am so excited that you're planning a trip to Bruge! That was my special vacation last year and I have to recommend a pub that was recommended to me - Staminee de Garre. It's hidden away down an unmarked alley so it can be hard to find unless you're looking but the house beer is worth is and you can only get at this bar. Definitely worth a trip!
Happy planning!
